Hotel Central Park

Ok let me list down the pros first: 1. Rooms: the rooms are SPACIOUS. We booked an executive room and it had some space..the best part was the ample space given near the panoramic windows to sit down. 2. Amenities: it had all the amenities like coffee maker etc. though plug points are mostly away from the bed which is a nuisance. 3. Service: was ok. People seemed less but they were prompt. 4. Food: well they dont seem to have their own kitchen and probably order from outside. You can order from swiggy though. However we ordered in evening and the food was quite delicious and not expensive. 5. Location: the hotel in on main udupi manipal road and very close to MIT(1.5 kms). Nearby there is INOx and a mall with a few shops. Cons: 1. Location: yes even though close to town getting auto is a nightmare. Unless you have your own vehicle it is a headache. 2. Early checkin: we came at 6 am in the morning and though we had requested for early checkin we were charged 1000 extra. This could have been communicated by hotel earlier but they did not. 3. Upkeep: though the hotel room was good a few things needed maintenance. Like the shower lever was not working properly. There was no place to keep soap in shower and earlier one was broken. There was no AC in the lobby/reception and the poor receptionist was sweating. Altogether a decent place to stay if you have your own vehicle.
